Description
Item Description:A satire in verse.
The main part of the work includes reprints of The second advice to a painter and The third advice to a painter, as well as two new sections, none of which can be attributed to Denham. Both it and Clarindon's housewarming have been attributed to Andrew Marvell. The four Advices were reprinted and ascribed to Denham in part three of A collection of the newest and most ingenious poems, songs, catches, &c. against popery, relating to the times, 1689, and were again reprinted in Poems on affairs of state, 1702, where they are "said to be written by Sir John Denham, but believed to be writ by Mr. Milton." Cf. The poetical works of Sir John Denham, edition by T.H. Banks, 1928, pages 327-331, and The poems & letters of Andrew Marvell, edition by H.M. Margoliouth, 1927. volume 1, pages 269-270.
